== Anime Comparison? ==

What parts of the novel were covered by the anime? ~~Astralmeson

Volumes 1 and 2 were definitely covered by the Anime, I haven't read past Volume 2 yet so I can't say whether or not the anime deviates after that point. [[User:Swiftelf|Swiftelf]] ([[User talk:Swiftelf|talk]]) 16:08, 23 June 2013 (CDT)

== Light Novel Status ==

Is this series, the originals in Japan, ongoing, hiatus or finished? Because seems to me that at the begining the time between each volume was little, but in the last pass almost 2 years... so i'm confused because of that, and because of the cover of vol. 12... So...
Finished, hiatus or ongoing?

Well we just got illustrations for Volume 13, so good to know it isnt dead--[[User:Godoffire|Godoffire]] ([[User talk:Godoffire|talk]]) 05:26, 28 April 2014 (CDT)

== Thanks ==

Honestly, thank you so much for translating the series, you're doing a great job and on top of that you're fast. =)

== Volume 13 Ending ==

I read the ending a few times but couldn't seem to understand it. What was going on? Can someone explain? - Ceberus

Alright, I'll try to explain it as simply as possible. The world of Ichiban Ushiro no Daimaou, the story that it was, is over. The universe ended. Hiroshi will become the next person to create another story. It won't be Ichiban Ushiro no Daimaou anymore. It will be an entirely new story. And that story, that universe, will end and someone else will make a new story.

That seems like a pretty....sad ending. Was that the purpose? I mean compared to all the other volumes it just seems like a weird turn of events. I'm still trying to understand what happened as well. Are Akuto and the rest of the world actually dead? they said they were going to another universe but are they alive in that place? And I got really confused in chapter 5. (-[[User:Omegalock|Omegalock]] ([[User talk:Omegalock|talk]]) 21:23, 12 July 2014 (CDT))

It's a rather classic idea. Every story ends sometime, somehow, either with a conclusion of some kind, or even just the storyteller stopping. However, a "properly" closed story has certain conditions. Superman will never be able to sit down, retire, and take it easy because of how stories are. There's going to be some conflict that brings him back into the limelight, or he'll die in the process. This story resolves it, but part of the problem is that this style of ending intentionally is open ended and leaves a lot to interpretation, but here's my attempt...

A and company escaped out of the story, to live on and do whatever-- elsewhere. Off-screen. Where, since they are no longer fettered by an author and audience, A's distaste of fictions can be shed, and a peaceful life obtained. (Sophie's World, effectively a novel-length primer on philosophy, covers this idea.)

Chapter 5 is narrated by Hiroshi in a constructed world. Akuto sought a way to resolve the story, but you can't exactly do so from inside the story... So Hiroshi became the author of a story called Ichiban Ushiro no Daimaou, in that world, and gave it a conclusion.

My personal, preferred, reading of this kind of twists things into a mobius pretzel, but is that this ENTIRE series that we read was written by Hiroshi, in the afterlife world. (While simultaneously being the character. Hence the pretzeling.) As such, he doesn't get an off-screen ending, and he becomes a Law of Identity through writing, creating, and controlling, the next story. ...This would probably be clearer if it wasn't 430 in the morning for me. -Venthus --[[Special:Contributions/75.140.7.38|75.140.7.38]] 06:44, 20 August 2014 (CDT)

All I have to say is, this is the most confusing shit ever.

==Translator==
===Question/Answer===
Could you guys please work on this some more, the anime was great but since it stopped you guys are my only hope of finishing the story.;-;

If your starting this, then I'll warn you now. It's not fast at all. If you've watched the anime continue from Volume 4, it is already fully translated. [[User:All Nighter94|All Night]] ([[User talk:All Nighter94|talk]]) 07:17, 7 September 2014 (CDT)

I understand having to wait, thats not a problem but it said everyone was inactive so i thought the other volumes wouldnt progress.

==Editor==

I like this series and I'm willing to do some editing work when I have time. I actually already did the prologue for volume 5 unofficially. How do I become an official editor?

This is an open project so any can become an editor. All you have to do is add your name in the space and do more than just a few typos/ edits, or else the space could get out of control. [[User:Joegargery|Joegargery]] ([[User talk:Joegargery|talk]]) 16:18, 19 April 2014 (CDT)

Its look good and interesting. I hope some Translators will pick it up

It's anime and manga where superb so the novel has to excellent. I hope a least an translator will pick it up.

Check the forum for the latest updates and comments with this LN, (unless you want to do it,(why not?)),we just have to wait for someone with the time."[[User:黒曜石ペガサス|黒曜石ペガサス]] ([[User talk:黒曜石ペガサス|talk]])"

Looks like a great series

=== Something strange ===

I noticed something strange.
Until 2012 the author published at least three volumes from the series every year but it has been 11 months since the last time since he published a volume.
Does anyone know what is the reason?

:Is it possible that the series did end? --[[User:Darklor|Darklor]] ([[User talk:Darklor|talk]]) 23:00, 28 October 2013 (CDT)

No this is very typical with series in Hobby Japan. Either the author ran out of steam, is sick or currently working on something else. Or the artist is busy working on a different project. Just don't consider anything licensed by Hobby to be typical. They release whenever they feel like. I feel like they don't really set deadlines for their authors.

== I saw on Bakaupdates that this got updated ==

So I came here, and there was no active translator, checked this page, and went back to the other one and bam Joegargery got added, Idk I just thought it was cool to see that stuff happen --[[User:Godoffire|Godoffire]] ([[User talk:Godoffire|talk]]) 03:44, 25 January 2014 (CST)

Yes, I've seen it as well, so when does it becomes a regular light novel not a teaser project.--[[User:YCMCA1956|YCMCA1956]] ([[User talk:YCMCA1956|talk]]) 15:51, 26 January 2014 (PST)
